What are "Living Stones?"

Our name comes from 1 Peter 2:4–5 (NIV)

4 As you come to him, the living Stone—rejected by humans but chosen by God and precious to him—5 you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

Who We Are

We are Reformed

Christians believe that God has revealed himself in the person of Jesus Christ and the Bible teaches us about him. Because of this we are serious students of the Bible who value honest exploration and discussion. Most of the program of Living Stones is about learning the Bible and working together to figure out what it means for our lives now

Christianity is the largest world religion. Imagine it as a great tree and in that tree there are a number of major branches. We are part of the Reformed branch.

We are Personal

If you visit you will have a name, not a number at Living Stones. We value face to face community. We will not crowd you or demand to be in your business. This is about learning to share with each other, with respect, at each person's own pace. We open up to each other as we grow together.

Many visitors are surprised by our diversity. There are rich and poor, nearly every skin color, old and young, formally educated and those who have learned the hard lessons of life.

We Persevere

Our members come not just from Florin/Meadowview area but from Pocket/Greenhaven, Land Park, Elk Grove, Arden, Davis, Woodland and beyond. We are three blocks east off I-5 on the south side of Florin Road. See our location page for a map or click here for a Google Map.
